Re: Transfer of H1B

yes, the scenario you gave sounds right. the only word of caution I may give is if your case is one that is not particularly strong, that you may end up in some trouble if your H-1B does not get ultimately approved and you are no longer with the original employer that has your H-1b. If you would like to discuss further, feel free to call my office.
